Kennel Club
Activities
- Agilitynet
- UK Agility: Agility dog competitions that are designed with all competitors in mind; enabling all dogs to achieve a level of success, while promoting high standards in competing, training and judging of agility dogs. UK Agility (UKA) was developed to promote the growth of agility with the thought of safety and fun for every dog. In addition, UKA encourages the advancement in training using reward based training methods. This not only helps to foster a better pet and handler connection, but also supports the atmosphere of a relaxed and friendly environment for dogs, family and spectators.
